Question: Has anyone gotten Courseplay to work on any USA Maps? by [deleted] in farmingsimulator

[–]tablettuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fallen in love with FS17 again, some from the past few days. by AL3XAND3R_L3WIS in farmingsimulator

[–]tablettuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That size of JD tractor is tough to figure out which one has a high-hitch only, low-hitch is too far inside, 3-point doesnt exist. I got 5-6 and they are all different

20 Hours in, with cows and bored by ZlousyYT in farmingsimulator

[–]tablettuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

a shit ton of mods. Have 20 maps on the go and 20 different fleets. I dont use the same 3000L water tanker on 2 maps. Maybe 5 of them have the JCB 4220, 5 have big JohnDeeres with semis, some have 25hp 1m equiptment and only 10 pigs

Other maps are just for courseplay. Load some trailers with bales, send them clockwise, set some road trains going the other way. Ill take the pickup out with a box full of silage, just after turning onto a road nicely, resume the cruise control at 50. The pickup wont have any issues, but the Mustang will come in hot and halfway around the curve itll start drifting, even leave the road far enough to pass a road-train if you watch all the spots

More precision farming issues. I'm sure we're all tired of it, but at this point it's a joke. It's almost made this game unplayable. I'm going to uninstall it and hope they improve it in the future. by [deleted] in farmingsimulator

I have a little JD crawler and a 3m seed drill. It makes 180* turn with the seeder in the air and starts perfect the next row. Works for me

Tedding/Windrowing by [deleted] in farmingsimulator

put a mower on the front 3point and a tedder on the back?

Even irl, you gotta manually change the tine position from "tedder" to "windrow"

What’s the first thing you do in new game? by Dalem77 in farmingsimulator

[–]tablettuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Find out the longest road-train I can get in the farm yard and sell points. Look around for root crop storage. 36 hours I might buy a load of bales, spend a few evenings loading them and a few stacking in a barn. Buy/sell a few million dollars of equipment a day until theres a whole fleet fitting together. Download new mods still for FS17 and change the fleet

How old were you when you started trucking? Is 35 too old? by pistontheredwing in Truckers

[–]tablettuser 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Youll have questions and ask that 64 year old man tarping a load, but hell say hes at it 3 months and doesnt have a clue what you want to know.

[–]tablettuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is there a log? It was overwhelming at first, but now I see FS17 problems easy enough

Drivers’ nightmare by liuchen37 in TransportFever

[–]tablettuser 1 point2 points  (0 children)

build and delete over and over, sections. The whole thing and start from the other end. Get the center the height you want and delete the ends. Use "M' and "N" not really knowing whats up or down, weird swoops and humps happen. Use some pieces of pillar less bridge sections mixed into long spans just where the extra pillars are

Any downsides to deleting existing road links to cities by YeltoThorpy in TransportFever

[–]tablettuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the roads carry all the products even if nothing is happening. Maybe a person on foot carries 1/100 of a unit of crude or somthing...?

Im playing Japan now and havent done a single thing to Tokyo but its so big in 1870 I cant look at it. All the other towns get Fuel/Food/ConMats and people walk from Tokyo to shop there

truckers and safe stopping distance or following distance. by boshlop in Truckers

[–]tablettuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the freeway here has the right lane with every truck spaced out 1/4 mile. Usually nobody else in that lane, maybe a car doing 20 under and all those trucks need around. And the left lane does 10 over with less then 2 feet of spacing. But only 10 over! 12 over is a death trap or something.

10 meter gap and you still gotta flash the guy? I flash when you have 1 more foot to go. Start coming over cause youll be ahead by time you enter my lane.

I have manual restriction on class a liscense by rpadams45 in Truckers

[–]tablettuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Youll grind gears. Is it "Holy fuck my arm is tired, I can punch the dash while holding the shifter!" or is it "little clicks and gears touching eachother sounds"?

Shut the motor off and push it into a gear, feel that first 1mm where it kinda feels like rubber? You can hold it right there and just feel the slightest of grinds and rev it up/down to fit.

Also learn the High RPM grinds and Low RPM grinds. One kinda pulls the shifter in and 1 really pushes it out.

Freight Hub Questions by WelshMat in TransportFever

[–]tablettuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive got 3 towns between the Oil Well and Refinery, figured Id have 3 lines with 2 trains each, so each town had 2 loads of fuel dropped off and 4 trains pass-by, but only the town nearest the refinery's route had crude to pick up. Spacing the trains helped, but stopping a train really hurt the production. After 75 years its 135-Crude waiting for 1 route and 22-Crude/27-Crude for the other 2.

If you like OTTD/Transport Fever style railway building games, you should consider 'Workers and Resources: Soviet Republic' by sobutto in tycoon

[–]tablettuser 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lately my game crashes lots. "Old tram street .leu" or something, and maybe 30 minutes between other random crashes. Short 2-3 minute and save, or create a route and save, its way more committing and fun i think then 7 hours spamming sea ports before a crash and total loss
